PLEASE BEWARE OF THE USER NAMED N0ssiA disabled friend of mine asked me to buy some SIRX (Sirius) as he's getting treatment this week and this scumbag named N0ssi took the payment as in the link below and has sent nothing at all. https://imgur.com/a/lPU3mA total scumbag that would rip off a disabled person of his whole fortnightly pension payment is lower than a snakes asshole.. You should be ashamed of yourself N0ssiScumbag.. That's disgusting... I would have hoped that he would show some remorse, since now he knows he is scamming someone completely unrelated and who is disabled, show a change of heart and offer a refund. I wouldn't have cared if he made up some story to cover that, even. As long as he gave the money back. But he didn't. And left you wondering with $300 out of your pocket. Man, you have to understand that crypto space is full of scammers like this. No matter how trustworthy they may seem before you send the funds, it's completely different afterwards. Unless they have dark green trust a a great history, it's just not worth it. Use a free escrow, a lot of more trustworthy people(including me) would have been happy to escrow this for you. Thoughts go out to your friend, hope he is alright. |

It's quite obvious, greed. People who simply want to earn some quick bucks without any effort fall for these scams, cloud mining, .
These fake schemes are not really easy to understand for newbies, they actually have no experience
Well, not only newbies anybody who is in a state of mind filled with greed and hunger for more and more money Lack of knowledge and everything that they are searching out is all about profiting in cryptocurrency or mainly with bitcoin.
I want to quote all of the posts above but some of it is enough to describe the perspective of some people about the cloud mining. is it true? Greed, lack of knowledge, stupidity, have no experience, etc. it may be right in some cases (fake cloud mining). But, if you ask; have you ever invested in genesis mining or hashflare? The answer is NO, they have not. They just read other people comment about how terrible cloud mining is, not get paid, payment delayed, etc. But, I can say: genesis mining quite fair and it's paying people for their hashrate. It's not me, but some of my friends, I have asked them about genesis mining and the answer: it's paying and profitable. I don't know about hashflare though. One thing to note: every investment has a risk, whether you will get profit or lose the funds, in this case; just put some money that you are willing to lose. But don't invest blindly without doing some research about the investment and asks some investors, not just ask "commentators" who never invest. You make good points. A lot of these people have never invested in cloud mining but just ride off other people's opinions and never formulate their own. But I have invested in Genesis and I can tell you that it ended with around a 30-40% loss. Of course, right now could be different as price of bitcoin has been skyrocketing. But I doubt the people who invested in genesis mining contracts with bitcoin at $20k is making a lot either. As with hashflare, even though I don't have any experience with investing in it, I'm pretty sure that nobody is really satisfied with it let alone profits. You've got the management being a joke, reducing contracts from lifetime to 1 year and then temporarily increasing min. withdraw to 0.2 BTC. It's true that Genesis Mining is a legit site, but you're probably not going to make a longstanding income from it. But people for the sake of their ref links spread the exact opposite of that. |

Bitgoldconnect - https://www.bitgoldconnect.co/ is a massive scam to start they have completely stolen the website of another ico lending platform goldgate as you can see here - https://i.gyazo.com/73e7e6e1d1351b8bf33da92dc26d28eb.png it is almost identical apart from them changing the words and background picture this is also a complete ponzi scheme that relies on the money of the new affiliates to pay the old backer just like bitconnect if you invest in this ico you are going to lose everything as you can see in this youtube video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6sZS2wGOQfE they get called out for alot of things. They also do not have any team listed and are selling 70% of there tokens which clearly looks like a scam coin just trying to make money INVEST AT YOUR OWN RISK THIS LOOKS LIKE A COMPLETE SCAMSimply looking at the name, it's as obvious a scam as there can be. Bitconnect literally just closed down and davorcoin is probably going to go down soon as well, why are some people not taking the hint that all lending platforms are scams? Their ICO somehow still raised around $12k in total. It's honestly surprising that people would still fall for this. Plus this one probably will not even become a full blown ponzi, but the admin will probably run away before that even happens. If anything is promising you "volatility software interest", and there is a picture of a pyramid denoting the referral incomes, it's probably a good idea to close that tab and not look at it again. |

Since when was exchanges stable? Ever since Mt Gox there hasn't been much improvement. There was cryptsy, which was the premier choice for altcoin exchanges back in the days, which in the end blew itself up. There was the bitfinex hack. There was poloniex, which is unstable as hell even now.
The exchanges that you listed aren't even as trusted as these exchanges, first you need to move to bigger and more regulated exchanges to ensure that even in the event of something going wrong, you have the peace of mind of knowing that it's regulated by a government. These small exchanges, cryptopia, coinexchange, novaexchange, etc. can run away any time they want.
Exchanges hold your money for you. Any service which requires you to send them money is risky, and often unstable.
As my particular interest is in staking coins, these exchanges are (in a lot of cases) the only ones available to me. the option of moving to bigger exchanges is not always applicable. Luckily, I have only been caught for a few hundred bucks as I withdraw to staking wallet or pool as soon as I exchange. Perhaps someone with an entrepenuerial attitude can develop an exchange using all the others as a guide as to what not to do ?? Well, obviously exchanges have to be used. I'm not saying that don't use them at all, that's just unrealistic and dumb. There is still a need for exchanges but these exchanges right now are really very very risky to use. What I can say is that if you just deposit your coins, exchange, and withdraw straightaway you'll find that the chance of having a problem is much lower than if you stored funds on it full time and used it like a wallet. Exchanges are not wallets. Hacks happen all the time, just like coincheck's NEM hack recently. Launching an exchange and making it mainstream takes a lot of advertising. Binance has done a great job but they probably paid a hefty price. The new, small exchanges never get the publicity they want. |

December was very good but in January you lost your faith.
Give us some faith or it won't reach $20k.
Keep it going up people. Show some confidence.
It's not up to us to decide what happens. I have confidence in bitcoin rising up from this correction but some whales obviously don't think the same and is shorting bitcoin or selling their stash right now, keeping the price down. Bitcoin isn't 'stuck'. It's just that the few attempts that we've had of breaking out of $11k has been met by corrections. It seems like some actors has an interest of keeping the price down under $12k, and once we break that $12k number for good, we shall be on our way to $15k or even more in no time. As I said, letting us know has no effect on the price. We're mainly just average joes holding our bitcoins through this. But I have no doubt that bitcoin will overcome this dump, it's just a matter of time right now. |

Thanks Magneto, I have tried it a little yes and accumulating bitcoin rather than fiat. I'm in a position where i can give it a practice run and see, so I might do a sort of research blog on it for the results. Should be fun, I'll let you know how it goes.
No problems. Also one more thing, you could look at this site for some altcoin arb opportunities: https://cryptocoincharts.info/arbitrage. I look at it when I have some spare time and analyze some of the opportunity it lists. It definitely won't be completely accurate and you'll find many of these arbs be nonexistent, but it's worth a look. Also as i said, take a look at individual coins coinmarketcap and click on markets to see the price differences. Good luck with your venture, and I'll definitely be interested in seeing if this is really a legit way of earning an income. Let me know when your blog has started. |

I'm seeing more and more new people to crypto parroting the mantra that Bitcoin is old tech and needs to die.
Yes btc is to some extent old tech and yes there are faster, cheaper blockchains. But newbies and even some veterans need to be careful cause if enough people think something then it tends to be a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Problems that come with taking btc away as root of cryto are really not known. I suggest to you nothing good will come from it and crypto needs btc as a solid reserve currency of sorts and most gains people have made in alts are due to btc rise. Take Bitcoin away from top slot and I think crypto becomes unstable. IMO.
I completely agree. Yes, there can be altcoins that are superior in terms of technology, and that's true. Technology evolves all the time, and cryptocurrencies are no different. But ask yourself, is something like smart contracts really going to be used on a day to day basis? Or are you more likely to be using bitcoin to pay for some goods online directly? Bitcoin has been proven to be a store of value. This is one of the most celebrated properties of "money". Altcoins are usually just hyped up clones of one another that really add no value to the economy whatsoever. Bitcoin will always be considered the #1 cryptocurrency, because it is the first to be here, the only one without a known developer that it's benefiting for, and the only one that has proven that it has the ability to steadily hold its value and even realise potential value for 10 years straight. |

I have anticipated this by withdrawing all my funds in yobit. but the opposite is happening. I still have not received funds to this day. after my funds arrive, I do not think I will deposit my funds for YOBIT again for ever.
do you have funds there?
I think this is the worst thing after hitbtc.
It's not the worst thing after hitbtc. At least hitbtc will hit you up with some nonsensical automated support replies, and you won't ever get that with yobit. And I've seen far more issues with yobit than HitBTC from my personal experience. What you should have done was split up your exchange or even withdrawals into smaller chunks, so that if something does go unexpected you still have the majority of your funds inside your wallet or your yobit account which you can withdraw with BTC instead of that disabled altcoins. Besides, why are you even using yobit in the first place? Cryptopia and Coinexchange for VIDZ exchange are both superior choices. |

As you can see on the daily chart ( https://www.aicoin.net.cn/chart/D331D4E2), another double is being formed right now, does it mean that BTC will move up in the next few sessions? Here is an original price analysis from a Chinese analyst Eric Chau from Hashpai, feel free to leave your comments below: Comments: Basically, the bullish trend of broad market has been formed, though BTC is still suffering from the possible bearish factors, trend is inclining to bulls however main funds try to depress the price and accumulate chips. Even if there’s a bearish policy ahead, the market is expected to suffer less loses than it did on September 4, the possibility for a correction can’t be excluded. Target can be set near $15,000. Suggestions: Chasing after dips is not recommended though bulls are stronger than bears, but you can try to go long when price dips and pay special attention to the risks. Setup with heavy positions is also not recommended before bearish factors are completely digested. Original by Eric Chau from Hashpai, translated and posted by AICoin Jami. There's indecision in the market. The question is whether to buy or to sell and obviously the sellers are keeping the price down at the moment. But I'm sure that the price will continue to move up from this point. The analysis is spot on, the target can be set at $15k for the short term once a pump gets under way, before it corrects and moves even further up. But the short term target is definitely $14-15k. Already seeing some pumps now. We'll be breaking the $200 billion. Me too, $10,000 is definitely a psychological barrier, I will be really pissed off if we go sub 10k for any sustained period of time.
Exactly, we won't be going under $10k. So the room for losses is miniscule. |

Back in the BTC-e days WEX has had pretty much no working support system for English speakers. WEX is one of those platforms now that is trying to be stricter on deposits by suspending accounts and all that, but doesn't actually follow up to their customers. If you have provided what they demanded, the deposit proofs, then they should unsuspend your account. They have no right to hold your funds just like that. The support is just acting like a machine with automated messages as well. I don't know why this forum allow some pope like wex to have self-moderated topic Apart the fact that they ignore all English written messages here, they not have time to reply/solve ticket issue but they have enough time to delete visitors posts who complain about their service. A reply of yours, quoted below, was deleted by the starter of a self-moderated topic. There are no rules of self-moderation, so this deletion cannot be appealed. Do not continue posting in this topic if the topic-starter has requested that you leave. You can create a new topic if you are unsatisfied with this one. If the topic-starter is scamming, post about it in Scam Accusations. That's disgusting as well... Perhaps you should just post your accusation instead of posting a link, and see what happens. Self moderated threads can be created by anyone, if you don't like it, then create your own thread. That's all you can do, and you have done. |

Obvious case here.
OP is a professional "coin promoter"(aka ann bumper/shitposter), and all the replies seem to be written by one single person/organisation that repeats their agenda over and over again, just rephrasing it every single time.
They do not look like organic replies and attention at all.
No matter how good an ICO looks like, if they are willing to use such unethical means of promotion to get an unfair advantage over their competitors, then they are going to be a project not looking at. It basically means "we cannot get attention elsewhere, so we can to pay for it".

I do disagree a bit. Not an expert, but if you avoid the debit card Coinbase fees and then use Advcash once you get into Dollars on Exmo it made money if you avoided Bitcoin and they never had my money for more than 2 minutes. My background is conventional FX so a 2% low risk trade is a dream. They have discontinued the debit card now In the last few days though which spoils it as other withdrawal methods are more expensive so I will have to look elsewhere. I agree there probably aren’t millions to be made anymore, but I think you can at least make cashing out less painful by being smart and there are small opportunities.
Hmm, if you're really interested in arbitrage why not do some bitcoin sports book arbitrage? What you said can definitely work, but the thing is markets are going to move and there are going to be unexpected delays and fees, that would make your entire working capital be stuck at one stage of your arbitrage plan. If it doesn't happen this time, doesn't mean that it won't happen forever. You're going to have to go high volume, if you're really going to make a profit. Bitcoin withdrawal fees can take up the majority of your profits if the margin is only 2% and you're working with less than 1 BTC. All i can say is, good luck. Why not try it out and see what happens? If it works, you can share it with all of us your experiences. If it doesn't work, you can warn us what steps to take care of or why it didn't work. Also, have you tried alt coin arbitrage? |

I suppose that there are some newbies (and some non-newbies too) out there who got invested over 10k, and are currently losing money.
Losing money is very stressfull, so I was just wondering... are you cutting your losses or you will hodl your stash untill 2020 and more following an "all or nothing" strategy?
The people who are losing out right now is the ones who are selling. I think that this pump has still got some distance to climb before actually being "dead" as people are calling it right now. And even when the pump is out of fuel, the price is still going to be respectable compared to the start of last year. Yes, it's very stressful for newbies right now, but for long term holders like us, it's just ignorable noise. A lot of newbies should reconsider their strategy of trying to make a quick buck from flipping bitcoin, because often even if they make a profit, they will miss out on the big picture. Bitcoin has a lot of potential that is still undiscovered. Until the day bitcoin is used in every shop and store online and in real life, bitcoin's rise is not over. |

in fact I just ask for clarity adri YOBIT party with what I experienced. because a lot of users who claim that YOBIT is a "scam" I am one of the many victims of the problem withdrawal transfer from cold storage. I wonder, kenpa first withdrawal success and with my second withdrawal stalled for weeks and weeks? if any party from yobit can explain this, I really appreciate this. if not, I think this can commemorate other members to pull out the funds they save from there to prevent the "unwanted things. this is proof of my problem https://prnt.sc/i5k95iIf you ask yobit they are just going to say that they are transferring funds from cold storage to their hot wallet, in order to pay you. A cold storage wallet is a wallet that is kept offline, and does not deal with outgoing transactions unless the hot wallet is empty. But since so many people are getting this problem, and yobit never seems to withdraw the actual funds in time, i'm really suspicious whether or not it's a real hold on the funds or just an excuse to hold the user's money. They could even have shortage issues from fractional reserve. Who knows. Yobit is an imcompetent exchange that can neither do their job right nor provide support when something is messed up. They're literally the worst choice for an exchange right now. |

Dang, i literally just ordered some silver coins with apmex. Next time i'll definitely keep this site in mind while buying precious metals.
When Apmex shipped my silver coins via UPS, I received a call from them saying that i needed to pay a customs clearance charge even though all my coins were investment grade and no GST should have been incurred.
Would your site be able to pay this, or will i still be liable for this debt?
Also, i find your pricing a bit too pricey, Apmex is currently selling eagles for less than $21 even without any bulk volume discounts. You guys are selling at $27.5 per coin. There's also literally only 3 coins you're selling, is there any chance that you'll have more options?

Nice to see this getting sorted... You sent wabi tokens to freewallet's ethereum address before wabi was even supported. After wabi was added, you didn't see the wabi tokens reflect in your balance. This led to you creating this thread, thinking that freewallet has scammed you. The fact is that since their ether wallet address is different to their wabi wallet address, and two are technically separate wallets in their interface, tokens sent to the ethereum wallet will not reflect in the wabi wallet. Hopefully freewallet will fulfill their promises of resolving this issue, and not drag this on for too long.  You are right in everything but one thing. The address is the same to receive eth and wabi tokens. After they added Wabi to the platfform I sent wabi tokens to the wallet again, to replicate the tx of the lost tokens, and the WaBi tokens were correctly added and displayed in my funds. I made mistakes, thats true, but sending tokens to the wrong address is not one of them. I hope that they find my problem easy to solve because of that. Thank you everybody to answer to my post and for the advices, I really appreciate it  Oh right. I was mistaken then, but my point still stands. They'll basically have to manually credit your Wabi tokens to your wallet instead of the process being automatic, since you did it before Wabi support was added. The process should be simpler then, they wouldn't need to access funds from another address and have to change your deposit addresses. They just need to confirm that you have indeed sent wabi to the address, and all of this is publicly verifiable. BTW, since it's already been 2 days, have you received your wabi yet? Please post any updates. |

Hello everybody
I have an error when I try to sing in bittrex, I have tried many times in different days, but it show me the same message
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
How can I contact the support
I've had this issue occasionally on bittrex. What i find is that if you just switch browsers, it should be fine. If it still doesn't work then switch browsers and switch devices as well, potentially try it on laptop if you have been trying to log in on mobile. Basically tweak every setting possible and see what's affecting it. Personally, i'm not entirely sure. I doubt that you're going to get a response from bittrex support on a timely manner though, and even if they do it's probably going to be exactly what we're telling you here. Bittrex is a mess since last year due to the increased volume, it can almost be unusable at times. |

I have some altcoins in my Bittrex account. However, they are in my Bittrex wallet. I would like to create an offline wallet for Bittrex for safety. Is it possible? Can someone tell me the process?
No you cannot. Bittrex is an online exchange, it's not even designed for holding funds for the user. There is no way that you're going to be able to create an offline wallet, when you don't even have the ability to create and control your addresses. If you need an offline/hardware wallet, either use trezor or ledger. They both have multi coin support. However they do cost money and they don't ship to particular countries, so you have two more options. Either create paper wallets and store your private keys offline for every one of your coin holdings, or just download exodus which is trusted by many people to store multiple tens of thousands worth of cryptos. Depends on your needs really, these are my suggestions. Hope they helped! |

Support still hasn't responded. All exchanges take a long time to respond because there are more users than support can handle, YoBit is known for exceptionally terrible support when compared to everyone else. I've contacted support again several times and I also contacted Dominique Herzog who is some kind of admin on YoBit. Support never responded; Dominique responded with some message that had nothing to do with what I asked. I later caught Dominique in chat and asked him when they will respond and he said that its not the exchanges fault that I transferred ETH to my ETC wallet by accident and that they have no method of getting my ETH back and that maybe by 2020 support will get to my case. I like to think that he is messing with me but that's only because I have hope in getting my ETH back. What Dominique said is bullshit because other exchanges can retrieve ETH from an ETC wallet and there are plenty of posts from users on this forum that made the same mistake and YoBit got their ETH back. I even offered support 2 ETH for their trouble if they got my ETH back within 2 weeks and still no response. I transferred a total of 10 ETH so this is a lot of money. This happened in November. This is the transaction: https://etherscan.io/tx/0xfcd28ba9ff2d2be8c781ab8be4a32d18823ecc7b6cb11b79e28ab48d6e52f1ecDang, that's like $10k worth of money. If you don't get it back then it's a huge hole for you to fill financially. There is no way for obit to automatically redirect your Ethereum from their ETC wallet to the ETH wallet. It's going to have to be done manually, and with their current level of responsiveness in support i just don't see it going anywhere. Your offers of 2 ETH as a reward is a good idea, but if they're not even going to bother responding, what good will it do? Don't expect too much, consider your money lost and any coins recouped should be considered to be a profit. Lesson learned, next time double check that you're depositing to the right wallet before broadcasting your transaction. |

Recently I got 100 tokens (UTT) from the Signature campaign and was excited to get it unloaded as I needed some ETH. Since the token is only listed in HitBTC I went to deposit the coins there. And Bahm! A deposit fee of 40 UTT. Are you F***ing kidding me. The token is worth $1 and was $2 few days ago. Why should anyone pay for deposit by the way? And $40? Are some bunch of imbecile kids running this exchange?
Anyone knows any workaround for this?
What exchanges can you use other than use Hitbtc? Hitbtc is the only active exchange that lists this token right now, so you just have to deal with them if you want to sell reliably and quickly. You could always contact their support to talk about lowering the deposit fees. I have no idea why they have the deposit fee at 40 UTT in the first place, it's quite honestly ridiculous. It's 8x the deposit fees that localbitcoins and bitfinex are charging. You can either trade p2p, with another guy who coincidentally wants these tokens, or store these tokens until you have a stash of them before selling them on Hitbtc. Both of which will expose you to risks and inconveniences. But at least, your HitBTC account hasn't been hacked or deposits been held up, because this is what HitBTC customers have grown accustomed to. |
